> what powers and advances have poor research systems denied us Alternatively, it may be that all the low hanging fruit in the known orchards are picked. But there are still workers reaching for the remaining higher, rarer fruit. Only a few are needed for what fruit remains. But there is instead a glut of workers. A few are up to the task. The rest pick up leaves and make convoluted arguments about their potential value. "These leaves are edible!" Maybe we need can find new orchards. Or maybe the unpicked orchards are too far away to ever reach. Or maybe they don't exist at all.
